Everyone is welcome to our services, and we are always delighted to see newcomers in any of our churches. We welcome members of other Christian churches to receive Holy Communion or, if you feel more comfortable, please come forward with the rest of the congregation to receive a blessing.
If you are unable to get to church, members of Church at Castle will visit you at home, and the Ministry Team will gladly arrange for Communion to be given at home to anyone who wishes it.

Weekday services
These take place every week except during the month of August and in the week following Easter Sunday and Christmas.
We meet on the last Tuesday of the month, from 2 to 4pm. All are welcome, bring friends, whatever your level of skill, to swap ideas and learn new techniques. Needles and wool will be supplied. Whether you do much knitting or not – you can knit your own projects or you can help with some knitting for a charity if we have a current project. St Luke’s is arranged so that we can sit comfortably (and socially distanced if you wish) and still chat and keep company. For more information please contact Judith, 01223 357627 or 07883 427807
